Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 No Sound From Radio

I own a 2004 lexus gx 470 and I am having some audio issues. The stereo system is the standard Mark Levinson speaker system. When i turn on my car, I can cycle through the different radio stations and cds, but there is no receiving audio coming from the speakers. I think it may be an amplifier problem, but i also don't know where to locate the amp or how to get my radio to work again. Also, I have tried holding the audio button while cycling my taillights on and off 3 times, but nothing shows up on the screen. My radio has not been working for about a year now.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: No Sound At All From Radio Or CD Player

My wife went to start up her 2006 GX470 and there was no sound from the radio or CD player.

All the lights and buttons seem to be working properly but no sound at all. I suspect it may be the amplifier.

I checked the fuses under the hood and radio 1 and radio 2 seem to be okay. Is there anyway to check if the radio is and or the amplifier the issue?

My second question is it worth buying just the factory radio/amp or is it better to upgrade the radio and amplifier?

Are there plug and play wiring harnesses so I don't have to splice the wires? It is again a 2006 Gx470 with Navigation without Mark Levinson and with rear entertainment system.

Lexus ES 2013+ :: Click Sound Whilst Braking Only With Radio Off?

On the drive home today I noticed a new sound on my 14 300h. On quiet subdivision streets, every time I press the brakes I hear a 'click', almost like a relay engaging, before the brakes start slowing down the car. I think it may be a relay but I never noticed this before. The sound is definitely from inside the engine compartment. Noticed this sound on 300h? It is very faint but repeatable with the brakes. I only hear it with the radio off.

Lexus ES 2013+ :: Nav Map Suddenly Turned Black And White - Radio Sound With Echo

Haven't driven the 2013 ES 350 very much yet but my Nav map has suddenly turned to black and white instead of the initial multiple colors, even during the day. What happened ... can't seem to find on the system how to revert back without going thru 900+ page book. Also, the map is showing some roads/hwys. with tiny circles (attached to each other) instead of the previous thick lines?

Radio, don't have the XM service but when listening to std. issue radio, sometimes and lasting maybe for 8-10 seconds or so, the radio suddenly sounds very "echoey" and more emphasized, it seems, from the back speakers. Then it reverts back to "normal" - only to do it again within the same 20 min. drive-time.

Lexus SC430 :: Navigation Door Won't Open - No Sound From Speakers When Turn On Radio?

My navigation door will not open, and when I turn the radio on, it looks like it is playing - but no sound comes from speakers.

From digging around here, it looks like this could be a fuse problem - but both of these at the same time? Are they the same fuse? Are the fuses I would need to replace in the passenger side or under the hood?

BTW... it was pretty comical getting to the fuse thing in the passenger foot well - I am just over 5 feet tall, so it was easier to do it head down, feet near the headrest of the seat!

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Radio Turned Off Sometimes On Starting Car

I'm having an intermittent problem with my radio. I have an '05 GX with Nav and I have installed the VAIS tech SLS. Everything works fine with the radio, but sometimes when I start the car the radio is turned off, even though the radio was left on when the truck was turned off. This is an intermittent problem and is possibly related to the VAIS unit. Is this a sign of a larger future problem with the Nav unit?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Radio Switched From 107.3 To 107.1 While Driving

I have a 2005 GX470 with 28 k miles. Purchased in April 2005, so the original battery is just shy of 6 yrs old.

Recently, the radio has be acting funny. For example, if the radio is tuned to 107.3, left to sit over night, there is a good chance it will be tuned to 107.1 in the AM. My wife also reported that while driving to the store the other day, the radio switched from 107.3 to 107.1 out of the blue while driving.

I can assure you we're not inadvertently hitting buttons by accident or anything like that. I've also seen this scenario with other stations 105.9 to 105.7, etc, and thought this could be a strange sign the battery is becoming weak (realistically, I should have changed it a year ago anyway).

I'm not interested in having the radio pulled out or anything like that.

2005 GX470 (28k)
2008 GS460 (2k)

My 2007 GX470 after always working perfectly, is now not putting out any audio from radio, CD, nav. When you start the car, you hear a pop sound. Should I assume it is the amp? Went to Car Toys and manager who was shorthanded suggested he try resetting the radio, but out how to reset it, it that is possible.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 03 / 470 - Radio Cuts Out At High Volume?

03 GX470 w/ ML/Nav, weird radio problem - the radio cuts out at high volume, and only at high volume. It cuts out for 1 sec, then comes back, then cuts out, then comes back. Screen is on all the time while this happens, and occurs with all inputs - AM, FM, dvd. These are what I've done to diagnose so far:

1) disconnected battery for 10 minutes, no joy

2) replaced 2 fuses pertaining to radio, no joy

3) took out cd in dvd player, no joy

Here's what's weird: When I move the balance to have all/most of the sound coming from the rears, it doesn't cut out! See attached pic. I am able to get it to the 3rd line below the lowest; if I go above this line, it starts cutting out.

I did replace both front speakers a month ago, and was working fine all this time.

Bad amp? Bad front speakers?

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Radio Frequency Started To Change By Its Own

I have an RX400h with about 100k miles.

The car's ML Stereo System recently started to go mad a bit: Let's say I am listening to an FM radio station on 103.3 frequency. From time to time I notice that sound quality goes bad and I can notice on radio screen that frequency changed from 103.3 to 103.25. After hitting memory button again 103.3 comes back, but after a while the problem appears once again.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Radio Volume Cannot Be Raised Or Lowered

It's a weird issue. Randomly the radio's volume can not be raised or lowered. Usually this is at first time you start the truck no matter cold or hot. When this happened last time i clicked on the button that says sound. It brings you to the screen to change fade and balance and it was all darked out that you couldn't tap on it. After two minutes or even less it started to work. I'm thinking the original amp is the issue but others tell me its the radio.
